Partly it's the glaring inequality - the fact that five minutes walk away from the City, where people are blowing thousands of pounds on single bottles of Dom Pérignon there are people who have to go to food banks to eat...

The author of a book which declared that the capital was top of a list of the UK's 'crap towns' has recalled complaints from Londoners who were polled on their opinion of the city.

London is crap for all sorts of reasons. Partly it's the misery of living there: the expense, the endless queueing, the standing on the Northern line with your nose jammed into someone else's armpit, the amount of time and psychological energy it takes to go anywhere or do anything

We were deluged with complaints from people who have to put up with the inconvenience of living in this expensive, hard city, with people from outside the city who feel London has given them a raw deal, taking away billions of pounds in the crash, and yet somehow managing to keep all the proceeds of the recovery..

Valerie Brook The pollution is disgraceful as is the destruction of working class communities due to the opening of endless trendy bars and overpriced restaurants, which leave locals no option but to move further out. Housing is pokey and overpriced, public transport is deteriorating again.

You've been telling us what you think about London being voted the "worst place to live in Britain". You can tweet us your views @itvlondon or go to our Facebook Page.

Paul MJ Never heard of "unbearable snobbery" before. London is not for everyone, that's the way it's always been. But considering that people continue to flock here, both for setting up a life or for just visiting, London remains and will always be a top city.

Martin Phillp Gentrification hasn't helped which has brought snobbery to former working class areas of the capital.
